The most surprising celebrity-couple news of the past week -- you know, besides the fact that Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson have kissed in Canada -- is that Fred Armisen and Elisabeth Moss have reportedly split, and Armisen is now dating his "Saturday Night Live" co-star Abby Elliott.

Naturally this raises all kinds of questions. And that means it's time for an FAQ.

Question: So are Fred Armisen and Elisabeth Moss separated, divorced or just taking a break?

Answer: It's unclear. Best as I can tell, neither Armisen's reps nor Moss's have actually confirmed the split. The many, many media outlets reporting on this matter have cited Life & Style magazine (which originally reported that the relationship ended) or unnamed sources.

This much has been consistently noted: The "SNL" Barack Obama impersonator and the "Mad Men" star married last October, and went in separate directions in May. But it's unclear whether divorce papers have been filed.

Question: Were people at New York magazine really upset when they heard about this?

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie fell in love long before he was divorced from Jennifer Aniston, and the recently divorced Kelsey Grammar has received his entire new girlfriend pregnant. Abby Elliott http://usspost.com/abby-elliott-2-15341/

Don't you mean this news won't FAZE her? Anyway, I'm ambivalent. I always thought she was too good for the profoundly talentless Armisen, but discovering she's a Scientologist has me rethinking my profound respect for her.
